Did You Take a Breath Test in Your Case? Was It a Portable (Handheld) Test at the Scene of the Traffic Stop?

Many people do not realize that while the portable breath test is a useful tool for police to determine the level of alcohol in your system, the test is not adequately reliable and is not admissible in a criminal trial.

Did the Police Conduct Field Sobriety Tests in Your Case?

Many police officers conduct a series of field sobriety tests in order to determine your level of sobriety. Some of these tests are admissible in a criminal trial, but others are not. In the event you have a trial in your case, you’re going to want an attorney who is well versed in the training officers receive about these tests, whether the way the tests were conducted in your case was compliant with their training, and whether motions can be filed to eliminate the test and the results from the case. Boston, MA OUI Attorney Kevin R. Collins has many years experience with these issues. As your defense attorney he will bring those skills to the courtroom to advocate on your behalf.

Did You Refuse to Take the Breath Test at the Police Station?

In addition to the portable breath test, most officers will require that you take a breath test on an instrument located at their police station. Some people choose to take this test while others refuse. If you refused to take the test, the police officers likely informed you that there will be consequences with your license. However, what you may not have been informed about is that the prosecution cannot mention the fact that you refused the breath test to a jury. Should the prosecution mention your refusal, the case can be deemed a mistrial. Lowell OUI Attorney Kevin R. Collins is well versed in these legalities and will ensure that you receive a fair and proper trial, should you choose one.

When choosing an OUI defense attorney to represent you in an Massachusetts OUI case, you’re going to want an attorney who is not only experienced in the issues presented by these cases, but also in the drafting and arguing of various motions which can significantly limit the evidence the prosecution can bring in at trial.
